So I have had a hankering for some biltong. Time to give it a shot.
Small test batch of around 2lb.
cut an eye of round roast the into about 1in thick strips. Salted it with sea salt and let it sit in fridge for about 45min
removed most salt with hands and then put it in a brine of malt...
About to try my 1st batch of wors. I have a bit of billies hanging at the moment. Do you notice a big difference when using collagen VS sheep. I am trying to figure out what casing to use.Is one easier than the other and is there a noticable difference in taste/texture of finished wors?

Joined the site many years ago but never got a smoker. Time and life past and I eventually got a smoker. Just got a Pit Barrel Cooker a week ago. My first non gas grill of any type. Tried some St Louis ribs on first day but temp was out of control. Earlier this week I tried a pork butt. Besides...
A week or so ago I thought I was going to stuff some breakfast links, but that did not work out. Yesterday I got a small butt so I could try again. Wanted to do some Italian links. I ended up going with this recipe from Len Poli site because it sounded good and I had the ingredients...

As far as my set up goes. I have the smoke from the mail box...
Thanks for the comments.
No real reason to go 1st 4hrs at 220. I got the temp settled there so I just went with it. I then cranked it up because the wife was threatining to order pizza b/c she wanted dinner. I guess I figured 1.5hrs/lb so that is why I thought it was long. now I know.
I think...
So I wanted to get into smoking meat. I only owned a small Char Griller propane grill. After reading the forum I saw that I can still giving smoking a shot.
Now I am someone who does not even own a hacksaw and am more liable to cut my hand off with one than the actual thing I am sawing.
Well I...
Hi all.
Living in SE North Carolina there are a fair few who know thier way around smokers. I am not one of them. I love good food in general and good Q ranks right up there in my books.
I want to learn how to smoke and grill my own stuff, hence I am snooping around this place looking for...
